Hi,

As you may know that the applications from Pakistan are currently done through London office. I applied for PR to London office in PNP category. I got medical request from the London office last month and they mentioned to get the medical tests done from the DMP (Designated Medical Professional) and they will send the result onwards to Overseas Health Management Service in London.

But my DMP in Karachi (IOM) is saying that they will only send the medical to New Delhi as it is their regional office. I already did medical and submitted by original IMM 1017 to them (wihch mentions visa office as london).

Can any body please suggest what should I do as the instructions clearly mentioned to send the result to london but the DMP is not agreeing as they may have not received any instructions on the change process through London office.

Will the newdelhi forward the result to London?

I am worrying as this may delay the process.

Any response will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Whenever possible, all family members must be examined by the same designated physician. If this is impossible, arrange your medical with the designated physician and advise him/her that your dependents are abroad and will arrange to have their medical exams done by a designated physician closer to them. Then forward a copy of the Medical Report Form to each dependent with the addresses of their nearest designated physicians. Your dependents should then arrange to have their examinations. They should tell the designated physician to forward the completed medical report to the same Canadian medical office that received your report. Your dependant's medical will be matched with your file as the Medical Report Form will have your File No .

Now u play a safe game. Write a letter or email to London Chc at the earliest and intimate that u all have undergone medicals in Karachi and DMP EVEN (write his name on ur letter) is insisting that he will send reports to Delhi and not London. In case u have some problem later like non-receipt of medicals or delayed in getting medicals in visa office u will definitely be given the benefit of doubt.

Hi Paul,

Yes I did went to DMP and explained the situation but they are insisting that the medical will be sent to regional office only.

The reply I got from lodnon is one liner that the medical be sent to london.... it did not mention if they mean london cic or london regional office.

My DMP is saying that the regional office will send the medicals to CIC and it should not be any issue..

I am also confused but since it is not in our control, we can just wait and see if things go well...

good luck...

Don't worry - actually both you and the DMP are correct. The DMP must send the results to his regional medical office (list of RMO's is @http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/publications/dmp-handbook/appendix-01.asp. The regional medical office will then review/assess and transfer the information to the appropriate immigration visa office where your case is being assessed (in your case, London).

So, you'll be alright.
